Equipment
Good interior and chrome. Okay paint over poor prep. Some loose chrome. A decent cosmetic restoration for the auction. Originally owned by Experimental Jazz musician Tord Bengtsson, this tord of a car is in barely acceptable condition.
Market commentary
Thursday early. The price paid here is sufficient to buy at least two P1800s and probably three of them ... unless The Saint left some nubile young co star in the trunk or Tords turds are hiding under the seats. At most U.S. auctions a seller would be hard pressed to give a P1800 away for nothing. Here at B J it caught the attention of at least two people and brought a huge price. Originally reported sold at $35,100 which didnt compute to a rational hammer bid, later revised to this, which doesnt make sense, either.
